Blood flow restriction training for postmenopausal stress urinary incontinence
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a new exercise approach—using a special band to restrict blood flow while training—to see if it helps postmenopausal women with stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when you cough, sneeze, or laugh). It might help strengthen pelvic muscles without heavy lifting.
